Always remember that when the meditation doesn’t seem to be working – like when it’s foggy or not working the way it should, just stop. 

When business is not good, we should stop and regroup to figure out what is wrong with the business.

When it’s fine, yes, we can just go with the flow, but when something is off, we shouldn’t just keep trying.

We stop for a while and check what is in the mind – how and why is the mind trying to do this, and generally you’ll see the greed.

Probably what’s more subtle is to notice that when things are going well, it’s much harder to detect the greed and attachment to keeping it the way it is. Although we’re helpless to doing anything about it except watch, try to notice that because when greed comes in and the next day if things don’t come our way, then it’s aversion that arises to cause the cloudiness, difficulty and all that.
